<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--> If someone wants to eat meat, that is their business, but I also disagree with those (An idea also coincidentally of Western origin) who tell vegetarians that their diet is somehow unhealthy without meat.

Agni,

I totally agree. You should perhaps also disagree with those who tell, meat eater that their diet is somewhat unhealthy because of the meat.

Good Vegetarian diet is many times better than a diet with meat. But, its individual preference. As for me, anything edible that does not involve killing of cow is fine.

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Another very important thing to compare. The same serving size of chicken meat has absolutely NIL dietary fiber, resulting in other hazards. On the contarary, the vegetarian diet is such a rich source of the same.

Bodhi ji,

I have no second thoughts about Vegetarianism being good. Please do consider the fact that those who eat meat, don't eat meat alone for lunch or dinner or breakfast. They have Vegetarian stuff also. The fibre content can be obtained in many forms. Apart from rice and fresh leafy salads of spinach, whole wheat breads that usually accompany a chicken dish or a lamb dish is there for fibres.

Cholesterol, i agree. But, Younger people digest more and grow better with higher nutritional value food.

My point is, We should take what is good in both vegetarianism and non-vegetarianism and make our diet healthier and live a better life.
